Dogs in the Hood
This month, SNAP thought we'd have a little look at a few of the Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind. As you can tell, they come in all different breeds and some are specially trained in other areas. Did you know that a guide dog must know to disobey any command that would put the handler in danger. This ability is called selective disobedience, and is perhaps the most amazing thing about guide dogs -- that they can balance obedience with their own assessment of the situation.
